"To work with David Wilson we Gachinsky Arthur and Lisa Tuktamysheva fly to Canada on May 13 - Mishin told the correspondent of" R-Sport.
"- He will put his program."

Gachinsky Tuktamysheva and become the first Russian skaters with whom Wilson would work.

It was interesting at the GPF to see Kostner at 55-65 TES/PCS and Tuk at 65-55. In many ways she was the exact opposite of Kostner - someone with the technical skills but not the components of a program being all there. It would be good to see something more equal in free skates. Maybe get that toward 60. Not at the bottom of the scale. And of course Gachnski is just always trashed by judges on PCS. When he was good at the world championships at 2011 he was 9th in PCS at the SP and then 4th or 5th in the LP. Judges did not want him to medal at all.

I think Gachinski received the PCS he deserved, and then some, at Worlds 2011.

But, this is very surprising and very exciting for me. I'm not a fan of the way Mishin tends to present his skaters; I definitely prefer Wilson's style, so I'm VERY interested to see what happens. This is great news, IMO.

I’ve seen both Artur and Liza skating live, and they’re soooo slow. Only changing the choreographer won’t help that much. They really need to work on their skating skills, though Liza’s performance has more spark than Artur. I really hope she’ll improve her SS so she’ll score 60+ on PCS.

Artur, OTOH, has been very overmarked on PCS through this season. The fact that he got higher PCS than Kozuka at the Worlds is just .

I can't see how Gachinski got "and then some" he was trashed. The same might happen to Liza.

I think doug_log is implying they were higher than he/she felt they should have been. If the programs are empty (evangeline's post) and the skater is slow (doctor2014's post), then the PCS should be lower.

That was my point. Thanks, mskater. I think he has some beautiful jump technique, so I hope Wilson will bring his PCS to the same level.
